udp: Resolve NULL pointer dereference over flow-based vxlan device



While testing an OpenStack configuration using VXLANs I saw the following
call trace:

The following trace is seen when receiving a DHCP request over a flow-based
VXLAN tunnel.  I believe this is caused by the metadata dst having a NULL
dev value and as a result dev_net(dev) is causing a NULL pointer dereference.

To resolve this I am replacing the check for skb_dst(skb)->dev with just
skb->dev.  This makes sense as the callers of this function are usually in
the receive path and as such skb->dev should always be populated.  In
addition other functions in the area where these are called are already
using dev_net(skb->dev) to determine the namespace the UDP packet belongs
in.
